The readers of Construction Computing have voted Access Accounting’s flagship business and accounting software, Access Dimensions, as ‘Software Product of the Year’. The accolade was awarded last night at The Construction Computing Awards 2006, held at the Russell Hotel in London.

Tony Barrow, sales director for Access Accounting, commented, “We’re delighted to win the award – thank you to everyone who voted for us. At Access we recognise that the construction industry relies heavily on flexible software solutions that meet their exact business requirements and offers seamless integration with many industry-specific solutions.

“We have dedicated product teams who work tirelessly to enhance our software solutions and provide new offerings. We recently released a stand-alone module, Access CIS System, to comply with the forthcoming changes to the Construction Industry Scheme rules, which the government is set to introduce in April 2007. This solution allows contractors to address the new legislation without even needing to change their existing accounts system.”

The award finalists were announced in September, when the readers of Construction Computing chose their favourite products and companies. Access Accounting was shortlisted alongside eight other contenders.

The Construction Computing Awards provides industry-wide recognition for individual and corporate achievement, rewarding the technology, tools and solutions for the effective design, construction, maintenance and modification of commercial buildings, residential and social housing and civil engineering projects of all sizes.
